Relatable tech reviews and advice for normal people. I have zero interest in deep spec dives or long-winded comparisons. I review laptops, smartphones, tablets, headphones and the latest tech based on real experience. I'll tell you how it'll make you feel, whether or not it's worth your time (and money) and help you find the tech you need to get stuff done. WHO AM I? I'm a UK-based freelance marketer, podcaster and blogger. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. Some of the links in my video descriptions will direct you to the Amazon website.
